[QUOTE="MrMyth, post: 5513133, member: 61155"] And, in fact, specifically mentions it, when discussing the two vices, Domination and Fury: "Domination, I feel, embodies the “lawful evil” expression of the blackguard; those dark paladins who choose it grow their power by striking and defeating enemies. The basic mechanism is to grant the blackguard temporary hit points. The character can then sacrifice them to spike the damage for his or her next attack. If domination is “lawful evil,” then fury would be “chaotic evil.” These blackguards are a bit more straightforward and deliver extra damage to targets granting them combat advantage. Rather than have to wait for enemies to gain the right condition or to move into flank, the blackguard gains combat advantage each time he or she hits with the green attack power, [I]ferocious strike[/I]." So not every Blackguard thrives on temps - just those with the Vice of Domination. (And I do like the flavor of that, feeding on opponent's power to establish your authority.) Edit: Ninja'd!
